We can pick a common denominator by multiplying.
3*7/5*7= 21/35
4*5/7*5= 20/35
We have our common denom is 15.
Our fractions: 21/35 and 20/35
Put a line over the repeating number.
1.2 is less than 1.5
If you cancel out 1 from both numbers you're left with .2 and .5
Multiply both by 10 and get 2 and 5.
Obviously 2 is less than 5.
First add y to both sides to get 9x=45+y than subtract 45 from both sides to get 9x-45=y or y=9x-45
